Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of death in developed countries. In patients with AMI, prompt reopening of an occluded coronary artery is the main goal of reperfusion therapies in order to restore normal blood flow to the myocardium, thus preventing left ventricular (LV)
The clinical result of catheter treatment in the patients with acute myocardial infarction in these several decades improved because of progress of early reperfusion therapy and stent treatment technique. However, the no-reflow phenomenon is still remaining as a problem, which is involved in a
The study was carried out after obtaining ethical approval from the Department of surgery, Cairo University Hospitals, Egypt. Patients with varying stages of diabetic foot ulcers in the hospital were screened and included in the study. 65 diabetic patients with Grade I and II ulcers were selected
Intravenous laser irradiation of blood (ILIB) is the use of He-Ne laser (632.8 nm) via an intravenous catheter for irradiation of the blood with a lower power of 1-5 milliwatt (mW) and a period of 10-90 minutes to promote functional re-generation mitochondria and pro-oxidant/antioxidant equilibrium
The study will cover 80patients under 70 years of age. Initially they will be assigned to three groups: patients generally healthy with periodontitis (P), patients after myocardial infarction with periodontitis (CP) and patients generally healthy with a healthy periodontium (H). Periodontal
The study compares one off surgical interventions that are in routine clinical use and therefore there are no major ethical issues. All participants will be eligible for cataract surgery. Participants will be randomly allocated to one or other of the treatment arms. Explicit written consent for
Multiple case experiences and studies have been published reviewing clinical experiences with Carbon Dioxide Trans-Myocardial Laser Revascularization (TMR) and autologous bone marrow derived cell application. These experiences have demonstrated perfusion improvements, ejection fraction improvements
SUBJECTS Subject Selection Twenty subjects from a single site in the United States will be enrolled. Eligible subjects will have provided informed consent. (See Appendix A, the study flow chart, for screening assessments.)
Inclusion Criteria
Subjects will be eligible if the following criteria are
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) represents the most common cause of blindness in patients over the age of 60. Most vision loss in this disease results from sequelae of choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) formation. CNVM is usually composed of well-formed neovascularization and occult (less
Diabetic macular edema (DME) results from abnormal leakage of macromolecules into the extracellular space from microaneurysms and incompetent blood vessel walls due to small vessel damage from high blood glucose levels. Oncotic forces then allow water into the extracellular space. Abnormalities in
The primary aim of the Lixiana Acute Stroke Evaluation Registry is to demonstrate the safety of edoxaban initiation within 5 days of cardioembolic stroke. Safety will be established by demonstrating low rates of hemorrhage in this setting. The secondary aim is to identify clinical, imaging and RNA
The objectives of this patient registry, which collects data on the Cardiogenesis Laser System, include: provide further information on the disease characteristics of the population being treated, examine TMR usage characteristics, monitor 30-day postoperative mortality and MACE rates, and assess
The study objectives are as follows:
- Track "real world" performance outcomes and physician experience using the CardioGenesis Laser System;
- Further define the disease characteristics of the population being treated;
- Examine transmyocardial revascularization (TMR) usage characteristics,
Insulin resistance is an early feature in obese patients lasting from hyperinsulinaemia with normal glycaemic control to impaired glucose tolerance and clinically manifest type 2 diabetes. Insulin resistance is closely associated to endothelial dysfunction and many other cardiovascular risk markers
